5.0 System Resource 5.0 SYSTEM RESOURCE 5.1 Ignition Power Management Quick Guide Startup/shutdown conditions from the IGNITION signal: IGNITION startup signal must be valid during 3 sec. (anti‐noise protection). IGNITION shutdown – IGNITION signal must be inactive during 3 Sec, then PIC controller initiate Power Button signal (OS must be set to shut down from the Power Button). It generate Main Button shutdown event and then goes to complete power off. Typically the system can start only from IGNITION signal, because startup PIC controller is disconnected from the power source. The system can be switched off from: Power IGNITION OFF signal. ACPI OS shutdown Power Button – generate ACPI event (OS dependent). 12V or 24V Check IGN IGN on (High) System Turn on Power Input Status more than 3sec Status...
